At the City Commission meeting of October 4, a Request For Proposal (RFP) process was discussed that might obligate up to $500,000 for a system of paid parking using Multi-Station Meters located to exact payment from the use of approximately 620 downtown spaces.

In the past the DSCA, at the request of its association members, has expressed grave concern for moving forward with paid parking in downtown at the same time that the DSCA is enthusiastically trying to support increased vibrancy and intensifying the attractiveness of the commercial district downtown during a very weak and struggling economy. Let Peter Fanning, President of the DSCA, know how you feel about this effort by going to this Website’s Contact Page and sending him an e-mail.
